The nearest towns are Helston and Falmouth with the City of Truro approximately 11 miles away.

The highly desirable area of the Helford river is not far away and offers access to excellent sailing waters THE PROPERTY Amazing piece of history and so original! Eathorne Manor feels like a mix of Poldark and Downton Abbey! Currently owned by a very nice older couple who are ready to downsize after 44 years of enjoyment in this lovely home. In need of updating, this will likely appeal to most buyers who would want to modernise to their own tastes and style. Made of granite under a scantle slate roof and looking like a painting, the main house has two reception rooms and kitchen on the ground floor (plus conservatory) and four bedrooms and family bathroom on the first floor. Excitingly there is a two-bedroom granite cottage that is linked to the main house via a covered walkway. There are also quite a few granite outbuildings with delightful courtyards that could also be converted (subject to the usual planning consents). Outside there are landscaped gardens, parking and garaging. This lovely home can only be truly appreciated by internal viewing!
